Which type of microscopy is useful for viewing colorless specimens? A. Transmission electron microscopy B. Light microscopy C. Phase contrast microscopy
Process of elimination works well for this sort of multiple choice problem. Do any options strike you as being particularly likely or unlikely?
i know phase contrast microscopy is one i should elimminate
Phase contrast actually enhances differences in the way light refracts through a sample, even if the sample looks transparent and homogenous under ordinary light. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_Contrast_Microscopy .
The point of that sort of is that phase contrast microscopy shows differences which are real but not apparent under ordinary lighting. Which is what the question asks you for.
